Journey For The Living Challenge 2026 Kickoff Walk
Join the Mark Schonwetter Holocaust Education Foundation as we kick off the Journey For The Living 2026 Challenge, a month-long event where participants walk, run, or bike 15 miles in May to support Holocaust education.
This initiative honors Holocaust survivor Mark Schonwetter, who—alongside his mother and sister—walked 15 miles to escape Nazi persecution.
Special Highlights:
- Walk alongside Mark Schonwetter himself
- Honor Emily Loeb, Director of the Pittsburgh Holocaust Center, with the 2026 Voice of Kindness Award
- Support Holocaust education—100% of funds go to teacher grants
